CHAPTER 645 APPEARANCE OF THE SKY STONE
“Tie Cheng, aren’t you… How are you alive?” asked Chen Hao as he walked toward Tie Cheng.
It seemed like Tie Cheng had a lot to tell Chen Hao too. Although he was ineloquent now, Chen Hao
could still grasp the main idea from his words.
It turned out that Tie Cheng had indeed died in the beginning, and Chen Hao was the one who buried
him. However, his corpse was stolen by Tie Hong in the end.
Tie Hong had used some secret method to resurrect Tie Cheng, then converted him into a murdering
tool.
This secret method was taught by Tie Hong’s Master, Yun Qing.
Speaking of that, it turned out that their Sacred Sect had an inheritance that was passed down from
one generation to the next. The Sacred Sect was everything to Yun Qing, and it was founded by her
alone. The purpose of establishing this sect in that year was just to prepare for her resurrection a few
hundred years later.
Listening up to this point, Chen Hao finally understood why Tie Hong burst into a cold sweat after
reading a letter that was sent by Yun Qing’s underling the day they were in the manor.
It was because Yun Qing had the status of a founder.
In addition, the present Tie Cheng was not actually resurrected, but a result of Gu Magic that was used
by Yun Qing.
Which meant that she had converted the dead Tie Cheng into a Gu, and this supplied life force to him.
This kind of Gu worm was evil, and it allowed a person’s ability to rise instantly, just like how Tie Hong
was now.
Frankly speaking, Tie Hong was half human and half demon now.
Tie Cheng also said that Yun Qing had transformed many people like them.
“All this time, I was just like a bystander, watching a movie. Everytime I receive Tie Hong’s order, I lose
control of my body and do things that I’m not willing to!”
“But Young Master Chen, the golden glint that appeared from you seems to possess magical powers. It
cleansed me of all my guilt, allowing me to gradually change from being a bystander to the master of
my body, regaining the ability to control my consciousness and body!” Tie Cheng said.
Master Ghost once said that his Yang energy was an untouched, extremely pure Yang energy, and
there were countless ties between the owner of the Jade and him.
If that was the case, this Jade was definitely something special.
He remembered that when Tie Cheng strangled him, there was a bright golden light emitting from this
Jade.
Then, black gas had emitted out of Tie Cheng’s body continuously. It must have been the evilness that
was purged out of him.
That must have been it!
“Tie Cheng, who were those 8 people? The inner energies in all of you were changed drastically, and
the inner energies in those 8 people were also not ordinary. Even I failed to harm any of you!” Chen
Hao could not help but ask in astonishment.
“They are from a group called Nine Doors. I overheard Tie Hong’s report to Yun Qing, and they said
that Nine Doors is a new force that has just risen, just like Yun Qing’s Three Saints Sect, and they
oppose the Three Saints Sect in everything. In addition, it seems like they’re searching for you too!”
“They said that after seizing you, they’ll bring you to Ancient City to search for the corpse of the
Goddess!” Tie Cheng coughed while explaining.
Although Tie Cheng was under control, he had been conscious from the beginning. He just could not
control his body, so he actually more or less remembered what he saw and heard.
Search for the corpse of the Goddess in Ancient City? Chen Hao thought.
“Then what about Nine Doors? Why are they so powerful too?” Chen Hao felt even more perplexed.
Actually, he could hazard some guesses about Ancient City. Gu Yuxiao was from the Gu family, and
when she and that old lady went missing mysteriously in Sea Palace, her corpse was nowhere to be
found.
Could it be that she was actually not dead, but had the same experience as him where she went to
another dimension, and brought the actual lady in white out?
This conjecture was not impossible! Chen Hao had sent people to inspect the place where Sea Palace
was, and they found that the tomb there had collapsed and was destroyed.
“Tie Cheng, do you know where Ancient City is?” Chen Hao asked again.
Tie Cheng shook his head.
“I only know that Yun Qing and the rest went to Ancient City after they learned that the lady in white
was there. Then, she sent me and Tie Hong to seize you. I have no idea where Ancient City is.”
“Ancient City? I think there’s a family there called Gu family. I heard it from Master Ning Yuan a few
days ago!” Doctor Ma Jin, who had been standing aside and remaining quiet all this while, suddenly Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.
interrupted.
“Really? Indeed. If Gu family is there, and if this is where the lady in white will appear, it definitely is the
Ancient City that is mentioned by Tie Cheng!” Chen Hao could not help but look at Doctor Ma Jin.
“Master Ning Yuan is having talks in Jin Ling recently. If you’re interested, I can recommend you there,
Young Master Chen. It so happens that he and Mister Wu Sanfeng are old friends!” Ma Jin said.
“That would be great. Thank you, Mister Ma!” Chen Hao nodded as a gesture of gratitude.
Right at this moment, an underling ran in hastily to make a report.
“General Manager Li, Young Master Chen, the top of Cloud Hill has been penetrated, and we found a
colorful giant rock!” the underling informed hastily.
“A colorful giant rock?” Chen Hao could not help but shudder.
At once, he focused his attention to respond to it hastily, and Yang energy was released continuously.
“It’s the Sky Stone!” Chen Hao was elated.
The Sky Stone was finally found!
“Zhenguo, instruct the others to seal the surrounding of Cloud Hill immediately, and prohibit anyone
from going near it!” Chen Hao commanded.
“Yes, Young Master Chen!”
This colorful giant rock was shining brightly. As soon as it appeared, all the workers were astounded.
They even wanted to touch this colorful giant rock because they felt that this was an auspicious sign.
However, this colorful giant rock was right at the center of one underground cave.
And too many people were interested to go into this underground cave to have a look personally.
However, as soon as they approached the entrance of the cave to look at the colorful giant rock, they
felt a scorching sensation which was unbearable.
“It’s too hot. Damn it!” the workers exclaimed while wiping sweat off their foreheads.
“Young Master Chen is so lucky. This giant rock must be worth a few hundred million!” Someone was
envious.
They had the thought of stealing a small piece of it, but no one could get near it.
Soon, the bodyguards of the Chen family arrived and interrupted everyone’s thought.
They were quickly sent down the hill.
Even the roads within a 50-mile radius were sealed temporarily, and there was no one to be found near
the hill.
Chen Hao stood at the entrance of the cave alone, looking inside the cave. When he saw the colorful
light that was emitting from the Sky Stone, he was utterly astonished.
It felt like there was a strange will at one instant, trying to communicate with Chen Hao’s will.
“This looks like a cave. There’s a huge cave in the mountain!”
Chen Hao observed the cave from the outside.
Other than making him sweat slightly on the forehead, the strong scorching sensation did not harm him
at all!
I’ll go in to have a look!
Enduring the pain from the wound, Chen Hao directly leaped down from above.
Although the entrance of the cave was as small as a well’s opening, it became larger when he jumped
in.
The space inside was humongous.
In addition, the more he looked at this cave, the stranger he felt.
It was obviously not formed naturally, but carved by someone.
“Huh?”
Chen Hao continued to inspect the surrounding with the help of the colorful light. Suddenly, his eyelids
twitched vigorously when his eyes set on a spot.
At once, his hair stood on end in fright…
